Tulsi
Stuti or Tulsi praise is in Sanskrit. Bhagwan Narayan had said that
this Stuti is done by Bhagwan ShriHari. First Bhagwan ShriHari performed
pooja of Devi Tulsi and then he praised Devi Tulsi.
He said: Wise people call a place as ‘Vrinda Van‘where Vrinda (Tulsi)
and other Vrinda type trees grow together. I worship my beloved Tulsi
who is famous by the name “Vrinda”. She appeared in Vrindavan in very
old times. Hence she is called as Vrindavani. I worship Devi Vrindavani.
She is being worshiped among many trees. Hence she is called as
“Vishwapoojita”. Thus I worship her who is being worshiped by many in
the world. Devi Tulsi has made the entire world pious by her presence; I
worship Such “Vishwapawani” (Devi Tulsi) and remember her. Even we
worship Gods with many flowers they get pleased when they are offered
Tulsi patra (leaf of Holy Tulsi). Hence Devi Tulsi is called as
“Pushpasara”. In deep sorrow I worship her to bless me with the Darshan.
Devotee becomes happy when he finds Tulsi patra. Thus she makes all
devotees happy and she has been called and famous as “Nandini” by them. I
request her to bless me now. She can’t be compared in the whole world
(meaning of the word “tulana”). As such she has become by the name
“Tulsi”. I bow to her. That very pious Devi Tulsi is inseparable from
God Shrikrishna as such she is famous as “Krishnajivani’. I request such
Devi Tulsi to protect my life.
